WASHINGTON — A Philadelphia federal judge referred the City of Brotherly Love’s George Soros-backed District Attorney Larry Krasner to the Justice Department Tuesday for investigation into whether he violated the law while trying to protect the reputation of his top underling.
US District Judge Paul Diamond, a George W. Bush appointee, also ordered that both Krasner and Assistant District Attorney Matthew Stiegler be removed from involvement in relitigating a 2009 murder case at the center of the scandal.
In a shocking memo, Diamond wrote he had “reluctantly concluded that Philadelphia’s highest law enforcement official and one of his top assistants may have violated the law” after hearing testimony alleging a pressure campaign against employees in the DA’s office who raised conflict of interest concerns revolving around Stiegler.
Staffers who had raised the issue were warned they could face “consequences,” court documents show. Diamond found that Krasner and Stiegler’s conduct may have amounted to perjury, obstruction of justice, false statements under oath and conspiracy.

While there is nothing too bad that the legal system could deliver to Krasner - is this something that is in scope for an Article III judge?
Nothing will come of this.
Lefty federal prosecutors will slow-walk this for a decade claiming they are “investigating” and then quietly dismiss for “lack of evidence.’
The judicial system is corrupt to the core and the likes of Krasner will be protected by the deep state.
In 47 days the "conservative" beltway bigwigs are getting a lesson on what happens when the justice wing sits out an election.
The left is already shooting. It is the same in the end.
